A long term project

I think a lot of things in life come down to your mindset and how you choose to look at them.

The last few months I have been really anxious about trying for a baby and concentrating on the fact that we are swiflty approaching a year of babydancing.

Now I have changed my mindset and looking it as as a long term project. Our GP said that once a year is up he can refer us to a fertility specialist and if we have to go all the way to IVF it would normally take 18 months. If that doesn't work we would go for adoption which can take another 18 months.

That's a long time but it helps me to focus on the fact that one way or another we can have a baby in 3 years' time. I took that long to get a degree, I can take that long to get a baby!

And anything that happens before then is just a bonus.
